"1, 2, 3" she sung in a soft octave, before racing out the door like a madman.

I shrugged it of and sighed, pulling out the magnolia chair in front of me. The seat was more comfortable then I had imagined,

“Dai, I think you missed out an “n.”

“No Violet. It’s Fuction, functional fact fiction. Fuction.”

“Spelled f, u c,..” She dissolved into a puddle of laughter, her stomach shook as she fought a new gale of giggles.
